RE: Busy January News: Alpha Release updates, 2 weeks before Public Beta release, Donation report, What's next?

Awesome to hear!

The issue with "flags" right now is that they are considered offensive and at the same time even Dan want's to use them to subjectively disagree with and lower rewards. To me and users I've talked to that's problematic for onboarding and clearity in general, because users from other platforms already use "real" flags in a whole other way.

That's why I'm positive to the recent changes of guidelines for "flagging" here on Steemit, but would also want to see the flag icon be replaced by a downvote button and weigthing changed as soon as possible.

(I commented on the post you linked as well, but should it be of interest, you can find my better comments on the issue under the other 3 latest resteemed posts in my blog as well)
